What happens to a memory that has already been encoded (say, that one gets a shock when stepping into a white room), if it is reactivated, and then protein synthesis is blocked (i.e. during reconsolidation)?

Expert Solution

Ans- If a memory has been encoded then it will be having all the information which should be present in normal conditions if due to some reasons this memory encoding is reactivated and then protein synthesis is blocked then it will also encoded this blocking.

In future during the protein synthesis the memory will be available from the previously saved data so there will be no difficulties in synthesis of the proteins as there will be present both type of memories in brain ( synthesis of protein prior to reactivation of encoding and blocking of protein synthesis after reactivation), so the brain may choose between those memories depending on the condition and requirements of the body because during reconsolidation the memories and mechanism of protein synthesis will overlap. If protein synthesis memory was stable in previous memory then the synthesis will occur otherwise it may be blocked.
